Every single one of those crowds bigger than the Storm's most recent home crowd. The Storm are premiers. Lions and Suns have been getting thrashed for 3 years.

Auskick is a six week paid after school program. That's 1 week longer than the nRL equivalent. You keep repeating these lies about Auskick being a one off free clinic during school time. You know this is not the case. You've been corrected on this before.

You're either ignorant or deliberately deceitful.

As I said, Auskick is different things to different people.
The MINIMUM is a six week paid course.
In WA Auskick is season long run by commuinty clubs.
In Victoria Auskick is season long and seems to include "modified football"
Even in developmental areas Auskick run by community clubs is season long.

So tell me what does the Melbourne Storm, based in Victoria, have anything to do with the title of thread "AFL nears rugby league's popularity in Queensland"

poor Rugby folk i understand why they would be mad, losing a home territory can be hard

I'm a sook, and i cant accept AFL's massive growth in Queensland

poor guy

you poor bastard. Is that the best you can muster? Making up a quote and putting my name to it? Lordy, that's quite sad
Chin up mate, we all make mistakes, "Queensland just isn't AFL"

You are quoting the 7000 which is the Brisbane only junior participants, whatever that means.

That might be so but RL has 47k+ and rising in the Brisbane area.........................nearing RL in popularity that's a laugh...............

I never debated that. I was just pointing out that AFL is not as small in Queensland as you thought.

You've tried to suggest that AFL crowds are bad in Queensland. Im just pointing out that these crowds are happening during a horror on-field period for both teams, and despite this, they're doing a lot better than the nRL premier.

Another cracking nRL crowd on the Gold Coast. Heartland lol.
